They're posturing for the upcoming Supreme Court battle royale, and in that sense, they marginally improved their position. The Dems, and their media lackeys, are going to have a tougher sell for obstruction because of that "extraordinary circumstances" tomfoolery. (How can somebody previously confirmed by the Senate suddenly become an "extraordinary circumstance"?)
It's not just a legislative battle. It's a political battle and it's a PR battle.
The shooting still hasn't really started. When it does, it's going to be fun to watch.
I want to be a Republican.
I hope they make it possible again.
I hope you are right - and we prevail!
